Abstract

Grammar has an important role to build a communication process, it is used to make a clear statement about the time of a verb occurs. This research is aimed to find out grammatical errors in terms of tense, active, and passive voice abstracts in translation of abtracts from Indonesian language to English produced by Google Translate. Descriptive qualitative method was used as the research method in this research. The population of this study was twenty abstracts that were taken from the University of Bengkulu’s Repository. The instruments that was used to collect the data were documentations and checklists. Keshavarzʼs (1999) theory was applied to analyze the data. From the data analysis it was found that tense was the most dominant error produced by Google Translate. Meanwhile, the active and passive voices error were rarely found. It can be inferred that as a tool, Google Translate cannot identify the tense of the sentences being translated. This is possible because tenses are closely related to the context of which the time a verb in a sentence happens, which can only be analyzed and understood by humans

Abstract

The intention of this study is to evaluate the preparedness of junior high school English teachers in Bengkulu Utara to implement deep learning strategies in their classrooms. The application of deep learning methodologies, which emphasize active engagement, critical thinking, and real-world application, purpose to target improvement, communication, and student outcomes. The study applied a structured questionnaire to evaluate the knowledge, skills and attitudes of 50 teachers towards deep learning. The findings indicated that while teachers displayed considerable knowledge (mean = 3.9) and favourable attitudes (mean = 4.1), their competencies in implementing these strategies were less advanced (mean = 3.7). The study's findings underscore the necessity for ongoing professional development to refine teachers' practical skills, especially in the fields of lesson design and technological integration, therefore ensuring the optimal utilization of deep learning in English language pedagogy.

Abstract

This qualitative study investigated the rhetorical structure of discussion sections in undergraduate theses, addressing a notable gap in research concerning specific institutional contexts and the need to examine the source of guidance and references utilized. The objectives of this study were to identify the rhetorical moves and steps employed by students, to explore how these patterns evolved across academic years (2020-2024), and to analyze the sources of guidance and references used. A corpus of 35 undergraduate theses from IAIN Curup's English Tadris study program was subjected to manual text analysis using the Loan & Pramoolsook (2015) framework. Further insights were gathered through semi-structured interviews with seven students who have graduated, with data analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that fundamental rhetorical moves, such as Move 2 (Reporting Results), were consistently obligatory. However, significant absence and trend to be optional were observed in higher-order analytical and evaluative moves, with crucial steps within Move 4 (Commenting on Results) often being optional, and Move 5 (Summarizing the Study), Move 6 (Evaluating the Study), and Move 7 (Deductions from the Study) rarely incorporated. Furthermore, the study identified that students primarily relied on previous theses and supervisor feedback for guidance. Formal institutional resources, such as the guideline book and academic writing classes, were underutilized. This suggests a need for more targeted pedagogical interventions to encourage advanced rhetorical competence in undergraduate thesis writing among students in the English Tadris study program at IAIN Curup.

Abstract

While TikTok videos have shown promising effects on vocabulary learning among junior and senior high school students, further research is warranted to assess their impact on vocabulary mastery in twelfth-grade students specifically. This study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of TikTok videos in enhancing vocabulary mastery among twelfth-grade students in senior high school. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the research involved 70 students divided equally into an experimental group and a control group. The data were collected in both groups through pre-tests and post-tests using multiple-choice items to measure students’ vocabulary mastery. The results from the statistical analysis of the paired-sample t-test indicated a significant improvement in vocabulary mastery for students using TikTok videos. This made strong evidence that TikTok videos were significantly effective in enhancing vocabulary acquisition among the twelfth-grade students. Although the study involved only a specific group of words, it offers valuable insights for educators seeking innovative strategies to improve students’ vocabulary acquisition through engaging digital media.
